office building, The Salvation Army
5-story community center/office building completed in 2001. Designed by the Hillier Group, it is also known as The Salvation Army Times Square Ministries, and includes a space that doubles as a chapel and theater. The Salvation Army is a religious denomination, founded by William Booth in 1865 and brought to New York in 1880 by George Scott Railton.
Except for a separate area at the west end, the facade is clad in red brick above a light-grey steel and glass ground floor. Squared piers with black granite bases divide this section into three bays of glass-and-metal doors, with a pair of double-doors in the wider middle bay, which also has a square steel canopy with "THE SALVATION ARMY" on the front. The 2nd & 5th floors have four bays of single-windows with vents at the bottom and flat stone lintels at the tops. There is a double-height triple-window in the middle of the 3rd-4th floor, with a stone surround and green-tinted glass spandrels between the two floors. The outer bays have single-windows like those on the 2nd & 5th floors.
The westernmost bay of the facade is separated by a narrow vertical band of darker brick, and is banded with thin alternating stripes of the two shades of brick. Each floor has a small square window, with a larger square window at the ground floor. The full facade is crowned by a simple metal cornice.
